The importance of Electrical Testing

In commercial premises, is not unusual to find multiple use of 4 gang extension leads, plugged into one another to run all of the electrical items required on desktops, according to insurance statistics most electrical fires in premises are due to electrical appliances.

It makes sense to protect your business, as most businesses do not survive after a fire, ensuring your electrical systems are safe and checked annually together with your emergency lighting, fire systems, and portable appliances is ensuring the survival of your business.

Many businesses try to get away with it until they are caught, unfortunately the ensuing fines from HSE are now punitive, so much so that most small businesses go out of business.

It’s not just about your business it’s about your livelihood and your staff’s livelihoods and the safety of all your employees and customers, cutting corners and getting the cheapest price is a recipe for disaster, ignoring codes and reports not doing the work which is identified in them is actually illegal, and HSE, will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law, furthermore you are NOT insured!
